PAINTING AND DECORATING GUIDES
Toilets & Bathrooms
Create a fresh, elegant toilet or bathroom that feels bright, clean, and beautifully finished. Your toilet or bathroom should be a relaxing, functional space that looks as good as it feels. At Drew Decor, we combine expert decorating craftsmanship with bespoke interior styling from Suzanne at the Drew Decor Interiors store — giving you a complete bathroom transformation from preparation to finishing touches. From tiling and paint to waterproof finishes and décor, we take care of every detail.
Our Preparation Process
Bathrooms demand extra care to ensure durable, moisture-resistant finishes. Before painting or wallpapering, we thoroughly prepare every surface to achieve a professional result:
Protect all sanitaryware, fittings, and flooring with waterproof coverings and dust sheets.
Use professional dustless sanders to minimise mess and keep your home clean.
Treat and fill any cracks or imperfections for a smooth, even surface.
Stain block and seal areas affected by condensation or old water damage.
Sand and prime walls, ceilings, and woodwork to create the perfect base.
Apply caulk to joints and edges for a neat, sealed finish.
Use specialist primers and paints suitable for high-moisture environments.
Fine-sand between coats to ensure a flawless surface.
Always leave your bathroom spotless and ready for use.
Our Finish & Attention to Detail
Once the preparation is complete, we apply premium paints and finishes designed to withstand moisture and humidity while still offering luxury and style.
